Dear Jean, thanks for your work! I built a recent git checkout of the kms38-branch on both a i5-3320M (w/ HD4000) and an AMD FirePro V4900. Works absolutely fine, the only minor issue is that there seemingly is a small performance regression w/ clover. However, I didn't yet have time to dig into this and make sure that indeed something is off.
